Li Guifei's statement can be regarded as basically giving more than half of the soap matter, and then Gao Shishi, together with Zhu Yijun, went to meet the queen under the leadership of Li Guifei.

There is actually nothing to show when I meet the queen, after all, the queen is indeed still sick, and even Gao Shishi, a blind medical man, can see that her complexion is not good, and her spirit is even more sluggish. But she still encouraged Gao Pragmatic with a strong spirit, praised a few words such as good knowledge and extraordinary bearing, and then Gao Pragmatic showed her the wonderful use of soap under the recommendation of Li Guifei.

When the queen saw it, she was very happy, but as soon as the excitement passed, her spirit became more and more depressed, and she had a sense that she might fall asleep at any time. Gao Pragmatic didn't dare to bother more, and even the introduction of soap was much briefer, Li Guifei was a person who saw the opportunity and was interested, and hurriedly took the two little guys to say goodbye.

Out of the empress's palace, Concubine Li Guifei called Feng Bao to him and asked him where the emperor was. Feng Bao replied that at this time, he should have just returned to the harem from the Wenhua Palace to prepare for dinner-of course the Wenhua Palace can also eat, but it is Longqing's habit to go back to the harem to eat, and the reason does not need to be explained.

Li Guifei thought about it for a while, and then asked Gao Shishi to go back to the house first, and she would tell the emperor about the soap.

Gao Pragmatic originally thought that he would have to eat in the palace again today, but he didn't expect to be sent back, and secretly arranged in his heart: It's just a light meal, is it so stingy?

Of course, in fact, he knew that the reason was definitely not this, most likely because Concubine Li planned to mention this matter to the emperor in private, maybe she had something to say to Zhu Yijun alone, otherwise why would she branch herself out so obviously?

But it doesn't matter, anyway, Gao Pragmatic feels that he has a lot of things at hand, and he doesn't have to accompany him in the palace as a helper, so he said goodbye in a proper manner.

When he left, Zhu Yijun wanted to speak and stopped, Gao pragmatically guessed that he was mostly addicted to playing bubbles, and wanted to have fun by himself after the mother concubine left.

The empathetic Gao waiter didn't wait for Zhu Yijun to say clearly, and when he left, he specially greeted Chen Ju and left all the two tubes of soap and water to Zhu Yijun, as for the bubble stick, of course, he also left it together.

As soon as they left the palace gate, Gao Mo and the others, who had been waiting at the door, came over with a carriage. Don't look at Gao Mo now that he has been promoted and has become the captain of the family guards, but he didn't give Gao Pragmatic a car to the newcomer. After all, although the Jingshi is not as secure as outside the city, the security is still more secure, but as the saying goes, Gao Mo attaches much more importance to the safety of his eldest son than before.

Now Gao is pragmatic and traveling, not only is Gao Mo driving in person, but there are also two riders around the carriage to escort him. Both of them were transferred from Bailixia, one was twenty-nine years old and named Xue Shan, and the other was twenty-seven years old and named Xue Shui. The two of them are a pair of brothers, and Gao Pragmatic estimates that their names are probably taken from the meaning of the benevolent Leshan and the wise Leshui.

These two people are the elite of Bailixia personally selected by Cao Gan, and it is said that riding and martial arts are the best choice, but Gao Pragmatic himself does not know martial arts, and he has not been assessed. On the way back to Beijing, Liu Wei mentioned to him, saying, "These two people are not bad", in terms of martial arts, Gao Pragmatic is still very willing to believe in Liu Ling's "professionalism", so the usual escort was handed over to the two of them.

After getting into the carriage, Gao Pragmatic asked Gao Mo, who was driving forward whether he was fast or slow: "How is Wei Ximin doing now about buying a store in Jingshipan?" ”

"Oh, this matter is about to be reported to the young master." Gao Mo replied outside: "Steward Wei actually came to the house yesterday afternoon, and wanted to report the progress of the errand, but he happened to not catch up with the young master to go home, and Steward Wei seemed to be very busy at that time, so he told the villain the situation first, and asked the villain to convey it on his behalf, and he hurriedly left after he finished speaking." ”

Gao pragmatic said "um" and said, "Then you can talk about it for him." ”

"Hey, okay young master." Gao Mo said: "Steward Wei said that he and a few of his subordinates ran all over the Jingshi and found that the storefront of the Jingshi was generally good to rent and not to buy. If you rent it, the price is quite reasonable, especially if you can draw a long-term rent, the rent is quite cost-effective; But it is very expensive to buy, especially in the past few years, although there are police at the border from time to time, but there is rarely a situation when I am approaching the capital, the price of Jingshi's houses is rising, and the price of these stores is even more, most of the shopkeepers are not happy to sell the shop, even if there is negotiable, the price has increased by two or three percent, Steward Wei feels that it is not cost-effective, so I want to ask the young master to give a clear explanation, whether to insist on buying, or renting. ”

Gao Shishi frowned slightly, and said, "What does he mean, is renting?" ”

"That's exactly what Steward Wei meant." Gao Mo replied outside.

Gao Pragmatic was not verbose, and said directly: "Just do it according to his wishes, the time will be set for three years, and we can pay the rent in one lump sum, or once a year or half a year, you send someone to tell him, let him see and do it himself." ”

Gao Mo replied: "Okay, when I return home, the little one will send someone to inform Steward Wei." ”

Gao Pragmatic asked again: "Is there any movement on General Liu's side?" ”

"General Liu sent someone here once, saying that he wanted to invite the eldest young master to dinner." Gao Mo replied.

"Did you say anything else?"

"Not really." Gao Mo replied, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said, "But it seems that what people mean, General Liu's matter seems to be about to be done?" ”

"Huh." Gao Pragmatic smiled and said, "His matter is already easy to handle, especially in the current situation, no one will mess with my third uncle for him." Besides, if I build momentum for him like this, it would be a little unwise for others to jump out and make irresponsible remarks - few of these officials in Beijing have a deep friendship with Wei Guogong, and can they come out to take corn for others? ”

When Gao Mo heard this, he asked, "Do you want to go to the meeting?" If the young master is willing to go, the younger ones will send someone to inform General Liu, and they can make preparations in the afternoon. ”

This means that if Gao Shi goes, he will go to a dinner party.

Gao Shishi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you can send someone to talk about it later, just say that I will visit in the afternoon, and the time may be a little later - I didn't sleep well last night, and I may have to make up for sleep in the afternoon." ”

Gao Mo hurriedly responded, but Gao Pragmatic didn't say much, he gently shook the small stove in the car a few times to make the fire more vigorous, and then leaned his head against the brocade pillow behind him, and planned to squint for a while.
